Zoneminder, Duo 2 POE and video with audio

[kweckstrom_652263608210296]

Hello everyone,
I recently installed both a Reolink video doorbell and a Duo 2, both POE. The install was straightforward. I'm using Zoneminder for storage.

The rtmp urls work fantastically for the video doorbell - both sub and main. However, I'm not sure what the rtmp urls are for the Duo 2 POE. Does anyone know which ones work? It's absolutely enabled, I've compared the settings on the doorbell as well as the duo 2 via the device's web interface, and they are identical with regards to the ports being used (and everything is enabled).

In Zoneminder, the video seems to record just fine when triggered by the sub stream (which is an rtsp stream on port 554, as I can't get the rtmp streams working). However, no audio is being recorded when motion on the sub triggers recording on the main cam. When using the reolink app on my mac or iphone however, sound seems to work fine.

Anyone else running into this?

The URL format I'm using for my doorbell, working 100%, audio and all:
rtmp://10.10.30.13/bcs/channel0_main.bcs?channel=0&stream=0&user=admin&password=PASSWORD
rtmp://10.10.30.13/bcs/channel0_sub.bcs?channel=0&stream=1&user=admin&password=PASSWORD

The above format does not work for the Duo 2. So I'm using the default one that the zm built-in camera detector finds, which is:
rtsp://admin:password@192.168.1.196:554/h264Preview_01_sub (or main). For whatever reason, no audio is captured in zoneminder using these urls. Anyone know of a fix?

Thanks in advance for any help you guys can offer.

@kweckstrom_652263608210296 DUO 2 uses H.265 codec for high definition (> 1440p) and so you need to use the following URLs.

Main Stream: rtsp://admin:password@192.168.1.196:554/h265Preview_01_main
Sub Stream:  rtsp://admin:password@192.168.1.196:554/h264Preview_01_sub

Use VLC and check you have both Video and Audio in both streams.

Also make sure you have RTSP turned on under Network Settings > Advanced > Port Settings > Set Up > Enable RTSP and Save. It's off by default.

To use RTMP you need to install the 3rd party software such as OBS or Streamlabs which shall allow you to remotely watch the live feed from your security camera or share the YouTube live stream to the rest of the world, or if you have a website, you can even embed the live stream on your website. In case of you tube you need the stream key which can be generated from your youtube account.
